West Godavari: Telugu Desam party Denduluru MLA Chintamaneni Prabhakar was at it again. This time around he displayed his high-handedness against farmers and even used foul language against them. He went so far as to file a case against them. According to the details, MLA Chintamaneni Prabhakar was present in the Janmabhoomi program conducted in Vatluru village on Thursday. Many farmers from the village lost their farmlands in the water tank construction in Vatluru. Some of them were present in the Janmabhoomi program premises holding placards demanding compensation. This irked the TDP leader and he started hurling abuses at them. Farmers, who lost their patience by this time began to resist Chintamaneni and started to speak out.

Later MLA Chintamaneni prompted the local MRO to call the Eluru Three Town police, who put the farmers behind the bars. Acting on a complaint received by the MLA, police booked the farmers under section 353. After gaining knowledge of the incident, YSRCP leaders Kotaru Ramachandra Rao, along his supporters went to the police station and expressed his solidarity.
